Coloured bath resurfacing for Blackboys homes

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Blackboys

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One visit for most repairs

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
  • Items cracked right through
  • Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured basins
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured shower trays

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
